The Autumn edition of Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics will be held from August 25-27, 2021, at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre at Shanghai, China. The fair will be held alongside four concurrent shows; Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles-Autumn Edition, Yarn Expo Autumn, CHIC, and PH Value. Together, these fairs will offer a one-stop sourcing platform under one roof.

Organizer Messe Frankfurt has also announced that Intertextile Shenzhen Apparel Fabrics will be held at the Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Centre, China, from November 3-5, 2021.

Several factors led to the decision of holding the Shenzhen show in November 2021 this year, instead of in summer as in previous years. Firstly, feedback from exhibitors indicated they prefer the show to commence towards the end of the year as sourcing sessions for Southern China and Southeast Asia, particularly for A/W ladieswear, being later, said Wendy Wen, General Manager, Messe Frankfurt.

The November date for the Shenzhen edition also ensures that the three shows are now better-spaced apart, she added.
